M YDecember 6, 2015A good variety of animals and very reasonably priced! Can't ferment which free tourist guide you get from the airport bit they have a coupon to get ¥200 off per ticket and regular price is only ¥600!
Alexander ZhukovNovember 21, 2017Old zoological garden in a great Ueno Park. The variety of species is not so great and the zoo feels outdated and time-worn but it has shoebill and great pond.

Helen MagdalenaJanuary 14, 2017You travel with children, you must visit here. We spent all day here and my children loved it so much. There are some animals they have seen only in movies and they found here
Karina LopesSeptember 19, 2017Nice place to go and ser animals for a couple of hours. They have a Panda and many other animals that i've never seen!
Fana F.November 18, 2015Hana Yori Dango brought me aaaall the way here. Haha! It was exciting to see Tsukasa's so-called “doppelgänger” (as mentioned in the drama). JDrama fan aside, the zoo itself is big and worth visiting.
Reese WAugust 31, 2014Great place for kids and only ¥600 for adults. Make sure to check when animals go to sleep if you come in the afternoon so you don't miss them.
James GallowayJuly 3, 2013great place for family, kids, dates, or hanging out by yourself. enclosures are good for the most part, and they have all the old favourites plus an okapi and some aye-ayes.
Melissa DuffyJuly 28, 2016A nice walkable zoo. The cages are disappointingly small for most animals. Skip the line for the pandas, it you go on the right hand side you can still see them without the wait
Tom Van GoylenMarch 17, 2015A lot of different animals for a very low admission price! You can easily spend 2-3 hours here. If you want to take the monorail to cover some distance fast, you'll have to pay 150 Yen.
Abdul Ghafur Ramadhan Md NahowiFebruary 29, 2020You can see very healthy gorilla and big panda in this Zoo, must visit when you go to Ueno. Entrance fee just ¥600 for adults a
O SSeptember 28, 2015The main attraction is the pandas! This area can get crowded though. Apart from that there's a variety of animals and the entrance fee is reasonable.
Rob PalJuly 9, 2018Everything! Beautiful birds, monkeys, sea life, and more. Many cages are very spacious 👍
CarmenMarch 22, 2015Enjoy Ueno Zoo in autumn, eat Panda rice and kiss through the window giant pandas
KrisAugust 14, 2016seems everyone loves the panda the tiger exhibit is also very good so check that out before leaving
Dee GraySeptember 6, 2015Zoos are wonderful, but they are especially wonderful if the animals seem happy. This is the case for Ueno Zoo.
A HazetNovember 5, 2019Not a big zoo, but have various species as exhibitions. From birds to mamals but the star is endangered super cute creature from china, yes its Panda, prepare for long queue to watch it#TravelingTokyo
Lauren BatesAugust 16, 2023Nice zoo with lots of interesting animals. This is a great way to spend some time in Ueno Park.
- Marc UKGSeptember 8, 2016Entry fee is rather cheap and of course everybody loves pandas. Unfortunately the zoo is not really up to modern standards.
- Rob PalJuly 9, 2018When I went the Panda was a main attraction - in other words a very long line. Save time a consider skipping it 🙂
- Ada DubrawskaOctober 15, 2015Pandas, gorillas, seals, and baboons were awesome - the second part of the zoo not so much, but still worth the trip!
JennyJuly 11, 2015Huge zoo and such good value. Also sakura ice cream in the amusement park out front
Elif B.K.October 16, 2011I recommend you to bring your own food, especially if you have young kids. For a small picnic the rest area beside the lake is the best 
BubbleJune 25, 2015Cheap entrance but the zoo is a bit old. Animals have small cages and look sad and bored. They have a polar bear under the hot sun. If you have seen other zoos around the world you can skip this one.
Andressa GramsMay 30, 2016It was a great experience to get to see a panda for the first time, but totally sad to see so many animals in little cages. :(
Karissa✨April 3, 2016This zoo is huge -- there's a monorail between both sides. So many different animals. Cool, but most of them seemed bored or lonely.
- Isabella SosukeFebruary 19, 2014if i could i would live here! lol! no but i love this zoo of all the zoo's they have here, even my mom loves it! :)
PIM❤ PathmanandJuly 29, 2016Lots of animal! But some of them are quite old, so they are managed to be on the display only a few hours.
Gregory K.January 7, 2016It was fun...but the a good number of the cages/habitats seemed way too small for quite a few of the bigger animals😕☹️
Abdullah AlSufianySeptember 4, 2013Show passport for discount, receive tokyo guide book for additional discounts for museums.
Teruko KurodaJuly 26, 2016Baby strollers can be rented near the panda exhibition. 300yen for the day.
GGFebruary 13, 2015Heartbreaking to see all those birds, monkeys, tigers, lions locked up in those tiny cages, esp the magestic elephants. Shame on you Japan!!!!!
Vasilis TanosJanuary 24, 2016This Zoo was depressing. The animals are mostly in small areas and look very sad. If you come to tokyo this Zoo could be off your list. The only good thing is that it is cheap.
Donchan KoppelAugust 26, 2013I went to Ueno-ZOO today. I want to watch animals slowly. I was not enogh time 2hours...
Cliff CLFSeptember 14, 2011600 yen entrance ticket is worth as the zoo's quite big enough to explore at least half a day.
